Privacy Guardian 4.1.0.37
Privacy Guardian guarantees your privacy by ensuring all traces of your online Internet and computer activities are permanently erased and unrecoverable on your PC. Information from every website you visit is stored on your computer and recorded in hidden Windows® locations including temporary files, cookies, system registry and the index.dat file. Web browsers only provide partial privacy protection by allowing some temporary Internet files and cookies to be deleted, but they do not clean data out of all the hidden files nor do they delete the data securely.
Privacy Guardian also restores valuable hard drive space and speeds up system performance by cleaning out old and unused temporary records. It allows you to simply and securely erase privacy sensitive files from Windows®, Microsoft Office, Netscape, Windows® Media Player and Internet Explorer.
Privacy Guardian is simple to install and easy to use. It is suitable for Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera and Mozilla Firefox Internet browsers and can be set to automatically protect your privacy at regular intervals. With Privacy Guardian installed on your computer you will never have to worry about prying eyes again.

Review:
Privacy Guardian is good software to remove your junk and history files. You can not only delete IE’s history but also Opera is supported. Microsoft office files history and Windows Media player history can also be eliminated with ease of use. GUI is very user friendly and you will not find any complicated features that other programs have.
Installation is also very easy. When the program works in the background it doesn’t not demand much memory so over computer performance is not affected. Traces from other popular applications like ICQ, Google Toolbar, Kazaa etc can also be easily deleted.
Privacy Guardian also has some other party add-ons and some browser plug-ins. You can set time interval and it automatically cleans your computer at regular intervals. With file shredder you can safely and securely delete files which you don’t want to be recovered at any time.
Overall Privacy Guardian is simple and user friendly software therefore it is popular between all kind of novice and expert users.
